Highstate data structure definitions

THE SALT STATE TREE

Top file

The main state file that instructs minions what environment and modules to use during state execution.

Configurable via state_top.

See also

A detailed description of the top file

State tree

A collection of  SLS files that live under the directory specified in  file_roots. A state tree can be organized into  SLS  modules.

Include declaration

Include declaration

Defines a list of module reference strings to include in this SLS.

Occurs only in the top level of the highstate structure.

Example:

include:
  - edit.vim
  - http.server

Module reference

Module reference

The name of a SLS module defined by a separate SLS file and residing on the Salt Master. A module named edit.vim is a reference to the SLS file  salt://edit/vim.sls.

ID declaration

ID declaration

Defines an individual highstate component. Always references a value of a dictionary containing keys referencing state declarations and requisite declarations. Can be overridden by a name declaration or anames declaration.

Occurs on the top level or under the extend declaration.

Must be unique across entire state tree. If the same ID declaration is used twice, only the first one matched will be used. All subsequent ID declarations with the same name will be ignored.

Note

Naming gotchas

Until 0.9.6, IDs could not contain a dot, otherwise highstate summary output was unpredictable. (It was fixed in versions 0.9.7 and above)

Extend declaration

Extend declaration

Extends a name declaration from an included SLS module. The keys of the extend declaration always define existing ID declarations which have been defined in included SLS modules.

Occurs only in the top level and defines a dictionary.

Extend declarations are useful for adding-to or overriding parts of a state declaration that is defined in anotherSLS file. In the following contrived example, the shown mywebsite.sls file is include -ing and extend -ing theapache.sls module in order to add a watch declaration that will restart Apache whenever the Apache configuration file, mywebsite changes.

include:
  - apache

extend:
  apache:
    service:
      - watch:
        - file: mywebsite

mywebsite:
  file:
    - managed

.. seealso:: watch_in and require_in

    Sometimes it is more convenient to use the :term:`watch_in` or
    :term:`require_in` syntax instead of extending another ``SLS``
    file.

State declaration

State declaration

A list which contains one string defining the function declaration and any number of function arg declarationdictionaries.

Can, optionally, contain a number of additional components like the name override components — name andnames. Can also contain requisite declarations.

Occurs under an ID declaration.

Requisite declaration

Requisite declaration

A list containing requisite references.

Used to build the action dependency tree. While Salt states are made to execute in a deterministic order, this order is managed by requiring and watching other Salt states.

Occurs as a list component under a state declaration or as a key under an ID declaration.

Requisite reference

Requisite reference

A single key dictionary. The key is the name of the referenced state declaration and the value is the ID of the referenced ID declaration.

Occurs as a single index in a requisite declaration list.

Function declaration

Function declaration

The name of the function to call within the state. A state declaration can contain only a single function declaration.

For example, the following state declaration calls the installed function in the pkg state module:

httpd:
  pkg.installed

The function can be declared inline with the state as a shortcut, but the actual data structure is better referenced in this form:

httpd:
  pkg:
    - installed

Where the function is a string in the body of the state declaration. Technically when the function is declared in dot notation the compiler converts it to be a string in the state declaration list. Note that the use of the first example more than once in an ID declaration is invalid yaml.

INVALID:

httpd:
  pkg.installed
  service.running

When passing a function without arguments and another state declaration within a single ID declaration, then the long or "standard" format needs to be used since otherwise it does not represent a valid data structure.

VALID:

httpd:
  pkg:
    - installed
  service:
    - running

Occurs as the only index in the state declaration list.

Function arg declaration

Function arg declaration

A single key dictionary referencing a Python type which is to be passed to the named function declaration as a parameter. The type must be the data type expected by the function.

Occurs under a function declaration.

For example in the following state declaration user, group, and mode are passed as arguments to the managedfunction in the file state module:

/etc/http/conf/http.conf:
  file.managed:
    - user: root
    - group: root
    - mode: 644

Name declaration

Name declaration

Overrides the name argument of a state declaration. If name is not specified the ID declaration satisfies thename argument.

The name is always a single key dictionary referencing a string.

Overriding name is useful for a variety of scenarios.

For example, avoiding clashing ID declarations. The following two state declarations cannot both have/etc/motd as the ID declaration:

motd_perms:
  file.managed:
    - name: /etc/motd
    - mode: 644

motd_quote:
  file.append:
    - name: /etc/motd
    - text: "Of all smells, bread; of all tastes, salt."

Another common reason to override name is if the ID declaration is long and needs to be referenced in multiple places. In the example below it is much easier to specify mywebsite than to specify /etc/apache2/sites-available/mywebsite.com multiple times:

mywebsite:
  file.managed:
    - name: /etc/apache2/sites-available/mywebsite.com
    - source: salt://mywebsite.com

a2ensite mywebsite.com:
  cmd.wait:
    - unless: test -L /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/mywebsite.com
    - watch:
      - file: mywebsite

apache2:
  service:
    - running
    - watch:
      - file: mywebsite

Names declaration

Names declaration

Expands the contents of the containing  state declaration into multiple state declarations, each with its own name.

For example, given the following state declaration:

python-pkgs:
  pkg.installed:
    - names:
      - python-django
      - python-crypto
      - python-yaml

Once converted into the lowstate data structure the above state declaration will be expanded into the following three state declarations:

python-django:
  pkg.installed

python-crypto:
  pkg.installed

python-yaml:
  pkg.installed
